Over 1,100 international students have had their visas revoked or legal status terminated since late March, causing widespread disruption to their studies and lives in the US. The Trump administration's crackdown has led to numerous lawsuits, with some students winning temporary reprieves in court. Many students, facing potential deportation and significant emotional distress, report only minor infractions as the reason for their targeting. While some judges have issued temporary restraining orders, others have denied similar requests, highlighting the uncertainty faced by these students.
